Soon after the election, when third party candidate Jill Stein filed for a recount in Wisconsin and the Clinton campaign announced it would join the effort, the billionaire baron called it a “scam” and posted a series of ridiculous tweets.

In addition to winning the Electoral College in a landslide, I won the popular vote if you deduct the millions of people who voted illegally

During a recent meeting with congressional leaders from both parties, the president once again made the unsubstantiated claim about voter fraud, insisting the only thing that kept him from winning the national popular vote was millions of illegal ballots.

“Two people familiar with the meeting said Trump spent about 10 minutes at the top of the gathering with Republican and Democratic lawmakers rehashing the campaign,” wrote The Washington Post. “Trump also told them that between 3 million and 5 million illegal votes caused him to lose the popular vote. The discussion about Trump's election victory and his claim that he would have won the popular vote was confirmed by a third person familiar with the meeting.”

Trump additionally suggested the millions of illegal votes were actually cast by undocumented immigrants (the people he wants to deport and/or incarcerate in large numbers), according to The New York Times.

Trump just lied &said he lost popular vote because of 3 to 5 million illegal votes. Will Spicer call him out and then apologize to public?

The truth is the real estate developer-turned-politician has no evidence to back up his voter fraud claims. He spent a major part of his election campaign trying to brainwash his supporters about “rigged election” and insisting that the biased system supported his Democratic rival, Clinton.

However, officials across the country claim there is no indication of illegal ballots — and certainly not millions of them.
